Comment (by Rufflewind):

 Turns out the documentation was misleading, though
 [https://github.com/haskell/directory/issues/15 in some odd cases it does
 traverse symlinked directories].

 The former documentation error has been fixed in
 [https://github.com/haskell/directory/commit/db88005a736f88ac212152d69ce4002f4d852219
 db8800].  The latter bug should be fixed in
 [https://github.com/haskell/directory/pull/16 this pull request].
